Chapter 14: The Tushita Palace Plan
Chapter 14: The Tushita Palace Plan
A week later, Yue Mingyuan and Zhou Mingde suddenly approached Guo Yi together: "Chief Engineer Guo, what do you think of this plan? Is it feasible?"
"The Tushita Palace Project!?"
Guo Yi took the document, glanced at the title, and then carefully read through it.
The more Guo Yi looked, the more his brows furrowed.
Tushita Palace, the code name for the lunar industrial city.
Therefore, the so-called Tushita Palace Project is to build a semi-self-sufficient industrial city on the moon.
The overall plan is roughly divided into three phases, with a total cycle of eight to twelve years.
Phase 1: Preparation Phase.
The main task at this stage is to build mass accelerators and space transport ships, as well as design and prepare modules for industrial cities.
The entire cycle is expected to take five years.
Phase Two: Construction Phase.
As the name suggests, this phase involves using space transport ships to transport the necessary personnel and supplies to the lunar surface to build an industrial city.
This phase is expected to take three to five years.
Phase 3: The break-in phase.
The industrial city has begun trial operation, and it is expected to take two years to integrate the personnel and equipment.
In summary, as long as the technology is not a problem, the rest of the Tushita Palace Project is not a problem.
However, this only applies to the Tushita Palace plan.
The Tushita Palace Project presented two major problems for the Age of Exploration.
After putting down the documents, Guo Yi frowned and said, "Are you planning to carry out the Tushita Palace Project simultaneously?!"
"Um."
"Whether it's building the shipyard for space transport ships or constructing the space transport ships themselves, both require a huge workforce. Where will we find so many people?"
Guo Yi looked at Yue Mingyuan and the others with a grim expression and said righteously, "Secondly, do we have enough resources to carry out the Great Exploration Plan and the Tushita Palace Plan simultaneously?"
Finally, what about the crew members and factory workers?
Don't tell me you're drawing personnel and supplies from the Age of Exploration! I disagree!
"Don't worry, no personnel or supplies will be drawn from the Great Exploration Program."
Yue Mingyuan shook his head and explained with a smile, "I will propose to the higher-ups that the Tushita Palace plan be made public and its construction be carried out openly!"
In this way, the personnel and supplies for the Tushita Palace will no longer be a problem.
In addition, the Tushita Palace project can accelerate our construction speed.
After Yue Mingyuan finished speaking, Zhou Mingde replied with a wry smile, "Chief Engineer Guo, due to the limited speed of material supply, our current construction speed has reached its limit."
"So, the public announcement of the Tushita Palace Plan, ostensibly a large-scale mobilization of resources for the Tushita Palace Plan, is actually a covert effort to increase the supply of materials for the Grand Voyage Plan, right!?"
"That's one reason. The second is to prepare enough personnel in advance for the exploration of the universe."
Yue Mingyuan nodded and added, "If the Tushita Palace Project is made public, the higher-ups can use it as an excuse to select and train space technology workers on a large scale ahead of schedule."
In this way, we won't have to worry about having equipment unmanned for a short period of time.
"Since the Tushita Palace Plan will not only not delay the Great Exploration Plan, but will also speed it up, then go ahead and do it."
"..."
After Guo Yi finished speaking, he noticed Yue Mingyuan and Zhou Mingde staring at him without saying a word, and he immediately felt uneasy: "What do you want?"
"Hehe, Chief Engineer Guo, so you agree to proceed with the Tushita Palace Project concurrently, right!?"
"..."
Guo Yi narrowed his eyes and immediately shouted, "Sisi, see the guest out!"
"No, Chief Engineer Guo, it's nothing, just a small thing that I need your help with."
"I'm useless for small matters, and I'm useless for big matters. I'm just a decoration. You two get out of here."
"Chief Engineer Guo, it really is a small matter!"
"..."
Guo Yi looked at Yue Mingyuan and the others with suspicion, and cautiously asked, "Is it really a small matter!?"
"Really, I swear on Zhou Mingde's integrity!"
Before Zhou Mingde could retort, Yue Mingyuan glared at him and gritted his teeth, saying, "Deputy Commander Zhou, isn't that right?!"
"A higher rank can have absolute power," Zhou Mingde could only grit his teeth and agree, "Chief Engineer Guo, I guarantee with my integrity, it's really a small matter!"
"Alright, go ahead, what is it?"
Hehe~
Yue Mingyuan looked at Guo Yi obsequiously and said cautiously, "I just need to trouble Chief Engineer Guo to provide the design and construction drawings for the space transport ship."
Guo Yi blinked, looking at Yue Mingyuan and the others with a puzzled expression, and asked, "That's it!?"
Although they didn't understand why Guo Yi was puzzled, Yue Mingyuan and the others nodded in affirmation, "Yes, that's it."
"Ugh, I thought it was something complicated, but it's just this?!"
Guo Yi's heart finally settled down, and he said with disdain, "Didn't Elder Li lead people to dismantle the technology of the spaceship?"
Why don't you just ask Old Li to produce the spaceship's design and construction drawings while you're at it? Why do you insist that I do it?
"It will probably be several years before Mr. Li finishes the design and construction drawings, so I can only trouble you."
"Um!?"
Guo Yi was taken aback and asked in confusion, "What project is Professor Li busy with? Why did it take so long to finish the design and construction drawings?"
"Old Li is just leading a team to dismantle the technology of spaceships; he's not busy with any other projects."
"Since Professor Li wasn't busy with other projects, why did it take him so long to complete the design and construction drawings?"
"It takes a long time to produce drawings, Chief Designer Guo, it's not like you haven't done it before."
"etc."
Guo Yi rubbed his temples and asked, "You haven't used Wen Shu to generate any maps!?"
"Wen Shu can produce diagrams!?"
"..."
Guo Yi was taken aback by Yue Mingyuan's question, then turned to Haro and ordered, "Haro, contact Wen Shu."
"Beep~ I'm here."
In the blink of an eye, Wen Shu took over Guo Yi's Hello and replied, "Chief Engineer Guo, what's the matter?"
"Wen Shu, has anyone asked you to use the 3D design function recently?"
"no."
"No!?"
Guo Yi looked at Yue Mingyuan and the others with a puzzled expression, only to find that they were also looking at him with the same puzzled expression. He finally realized what was going on: "You don't know about Wen Shu's 3D design function!?"
"What is 3D design functionality!?"
"Isn't the Wenshu system used to control Harrow and the production line, and then provide certain data calculations?"
*Smack!*
Faced with Yue Mingyuan and the others' questions, Guo Yi couldn't help but cover his face with his hand and said helplessly, "Fine, I understand. It's my fault."
"I knew it! With the Wen Shu, how come it still takes so long to produce the design and construction drawings for a space transport ship? Turns out you guys don't know about the Wen Shu's 3D design capabilities."
After saying that, Guo Yi said to Li Sisi, "Sisi, notify Elder Zhou and the others to gather at Wen Shu. I will give you a detailed introduction to the main functions of Wen Shu."
"Um."
"You two came along too. Don't come to me with these little things anymore."
